New Plant
KA11N2 LBtu Combined Cycle Power Plant (CCPP)
Demonstrated reliability and availability
Increasing price of electricity drives energy optimization in steel plants and pushes to use Blast Furnace Gas (BFG) more efficiently, i.e. burn it in gas turbines instead of boilers. Alstom KA11N2 LBtu* is the ideal choice for customers with a demand for fast increase in electricity and heat as it can be used for existing or new steel plants, even where natural gas is not available, or very expensive.
KA11N2 LBtu is suitable for industrial applications (steel industry) on both 50 Hz and 60 Hz markets.
* LBtu = low British thermal unit
